[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ODP was hit hard by DAs. Also, some top level non-DA players were turned off by rampant politics in player selections. And, yes, USSF does not scout ODP for youth national teams. If you want to be scouted, you have to be in DA or in an academy abroad. ODP is a good option for a good player on an average team, who may not be sufficiently challenged at his club and whose family is willing to pay for extra training. Older age group selections have a lot of B team players so I think the tryouts this year were less competitive than in the past. [/quote] Yeah, it's a shame about the politics. I love it as a supplement in the spring because of the gap in club soccer for high school soccer, but I'm having a hard time justifying it. I'm not sure that we can do another year, unless the state ODP stuff knocks my socks off this spring.[/quote]
